Sen. John McCain is praising the recent wave of pro-illegal immigration demonstrations, saying that if the protesters hang tough they will succeed in forcing Congress to liberalize immigration laws.

"If such demonstrations continue, I think we will have a bill for the President to sign soon," the Arizona Republican told a New York City gathering on Friday sponsored by the Irish Lobby for Immigration Reform.

"The more debate, the more demonstrations, the more likely we will prevail," McCain added, in quotes picked up by the New York Daily News.

The Irish group backs the McCain-Kennedy bill that would allow illegal aliens already in the U.S. to stay and work toward citizenship.

What’s new? Why I call Juan Juan, he’s an open borders freak through and through.

His rhetoric that he’s now seen the need to put securing the borders first is at least eight years old.

Illegal alien amnesty is nothing more than anti-American bigotry.

With Juan Hernandez and the Hispano-Bigots on his team...McCain will not secure the border and remove the illegals. Weak on border security...weak on national security

They don’t want to let East Asians and South Asians into the country either.
